I have 2 versions of the air vent at the ends of the MY 73 dash (correct me if wrong MY). Pics below. Is there a changeover MY? I want to use the correct ones for a '73. Bottom pic is from a 74

My '73 1.7 has the second style vents. I don't know the build date because the door jamb sticker is missing, but am fairly certain my car was built toward the end of the '73 MY.
Given the originality of the rest of the interior of my car, I have no reason to suspect the vents were changed. So, I suspect this another case where the factory started switching over to the new parts when they felt like it, rather than exactly at the start of the next MY. I do have the CoA on order, but it's only been a month, so no idea when it will finally arrive. |

Mine was a later '73 build (april) but clearly at lease some of the '74 version made it into production '73 cars.   |
